Josiah Conder's 1893 Landscape Gardening in Japan, published in Tokio by Kelly and Walsh, is a technical treatise on Japanese garden design written for Western readers interested in horticulture and landscape art. Its pictures are plates of lithographed garden views, rotated on the page, and a diagram of stepping stones, crane and tortoise stones, and raked sand, useful to a designer studying stone arrangement, pathways, and tea garden layout.
